Is set to the American way
how do I get it back to British xD
I looked on the keyboard options and there is no choice for it to go back to being a British style!! so when I do admin commands I don't do an @ or # I end up doing " and \
Dammit! So annoying!
If you can help then let me know, thanks in advance!
I'm willing to bet daZe knows how, he is clever at things like this xD

For Vista at least:
Start -> Control Panel -> Clock, Language and Region -> Regional and language Options -> Click keyboards and languages tab -> Change Keyboards -> Select and use UK

I'm sure it's something similar for XP.

You can also do it by pressing Shift + Alt
